(6/24/21) Farup Sommerland has announced Fønix, as their new for 2022 roller coaster from Vekoma. Fønix will have a top speed of 95 km/h and stand 40m tall, starting off the action with an 80º near vertical first drop. The layout will feature some fun close to the ground action with the track moving through some trenches here and there, as well as performing a corkscrew right through the middle of the station house. They say it will also feature the world’s first “Stall Loop”, which kind of appears as if the top of the loop almost has a flat section of track installed at the peak to extend the hang-time. Check out the animated preview video below!
